Frediano Ziglio 56182be522 worker: don't do too much polling 
Now that processing is correctly restored there is no need to keep
polling to avoid main loop hangs. Reduce the polling count to 1
(just try once).
This reduce cpu usage if guests are mainly idle.
If you consider 100 guests waiting to login with cursor blinking
and considering the polling was done 200 times every 10ms (maximum)
just the cursor blinking was causing 10100 loop iterations per second
while now only 200 are needed (considering cursor blinking every
second).

   SPICE: Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
   =============================================================

SPICE is a remote display system built for virtual environments which
allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the
machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and
from a wide variety of machine architectures.

Installation
------------

The SPICE package uses GNU autotools, so the build install process
follows the standard process documented in the INSTALL file. As a
quick start you can do

  ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
        --localstatedir=/var --libdir=/usr/lib
  make
  sudo make install

Or to install into a private user specific location

  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/spice
  make
  make install

The following mandatory dependancies are required in order to
build SPICE

    Spice protocol >= 0.9.0
    Pixman         >= 0.17.7
    OpenSSL
    libjpeg
    zlib
    Cyrus-SASL

The following optional dependancies increase the available
functionality

    GE Gui         >= 0.6.0,  < 0.7.0   (GUI app support)
    OpenGL                              (GUI app support)
    Alsa                                (Linux support)
    XRandR         >= 1.2               (X11 support)
    Xinerama       >= 1.0               (X11 support)
    libcacard      >= 0.1.2             (Smartcard support)

Communication
-------------

To communicate with the development team, or to post patches
there is a technical mailing list:

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel

There is also a mailing list for new release announcements:

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-announce/

To view known bugs, or report new bugs, in SPICE visit

   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Spice

Bugs found when using an OS distribution's binary packages should
be reported to the OS vendors' own bug tracker first.

The latest SPICE code can be found in GIT at:

   http://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/
